17 Struggles A ‘Good Girl’ Faces When She Dates Her First ‘Bad Boy’

Every woman has her own perception of a “bad boy.”
Maybe he has tattoos or piercings. Maybe he does weird drugs. Maybe he resists authority and prefers to come up with his own ideas about the world instead of listening to what other people tell him to do.

They’re charming. They encourage us to go on adventures and make us question things we’d known our whole lives.

Conformity is everywhere, so it feels good to be with someone who’s proud of exactly who he is, no matter how “wrong” of a lifestyle he may lead.

As appealing as he is, though, you can’t date a bad boy without experiencing some harrowing struggles.

1. You realize he may not be your forever.

At the end of the day, he might just be an interesting experience that you’ll tell your grandchildren about one day.

2. You know you don’t have a hold on him.

He does whatever he wants, and he sure as hell isn’t going to stop just because you want him to.

3. You try to fit into a world you don’t necessarily fit into.

Do you really like smoking weed and staying up until 5 AM, or are you just doing it for his approval?

4. You can’t introduce him to your family.

Your mother would nod disapprovingly, and your father would kill him, so you know to keep him away.

5. You rationalize his behavior to yourself, your friends and family.

Underneath the drugs, the tattoos, the crimes and the anarchy, he’s a good guy… right? Right. Yes. Exactly.

You really loved this cheesy rom-com, but he thought it was lame, so now you think it’s lame.

9. Your friends always ask you what the hell you’re doing.

You either get defensive about it or say you don’t know. Both answers are bad.

10. You feel lame when you don’t want to keep up with his reckless lifestyle.

He’s about to do drugs, to go steal something or to trespass somewhere, and he obviously wants you, his new partner in crime, to come with him. Time to panic!

11. You fear that he thinks you’re judging him.

You guys are such opposites that whenever you talk about something you disagree on, you fear that he thinks you’re being holier-than-thou.

12. You realize you’re not the only person he’s ever dated.

You aren’t his princess. If he’s a bad boy, he’s probably charmed other women and been around the block.

13. You compare yourself to everyone else he’s had s*x with.

Were they as “bad” as him and thus more rebellious and risky in bed? You can’t help but feel inadequate.

14. Your friends and family start to notice changes in you.

They tell you that you’ve been acting differently.

15. You put yourself in real danger.

Sure, HE may be good at sneaking around and avoiding authority, but you don’t have as much experience in that department.

16. You question how far you’re straying from your true self.

Are you changing because of this guy, or would you have grown up and realized your naïveté regardless?

17. You realize there’s no such thing as a bad boy or a good girl, and you’ve been putting him and yourself in terribly limiting boxes.

The truth is that we’ve all got a little good and bad in us. And if you look at people as just “people,” you can learn from them and grow with them without straying too far from who you really are deep down.
